Welcome Letter

A welcome letter from PTA President, Kathleen Blaine

 

Hello Highlands Families!

     On behalf of the Highlands PTA, as this year’s PTA (Parent Teacher Association) President, I want to be the first to welcome you to our school and the community.  My name is Kathleen Blaine and I have three children, my oldest son is a 2017 graduate of Highlands, my daughter is a 3rd grader and my youngest son is a 1st grader.  I am thrilled to be back as your Highlands PTA President and look forward to an amazing school year!

     The PTA is focused on improving and enhancing communication and teamwork as we believe that consistent and timely communication between those involved in our childrens’ lives is imperative. To help keep the lines of communication wide open, we encourage every family to join the PTA communications app Konstella , follow the PTA on our new Instagram account at HawksPTAHub and to attend our monthly PTA meetings, held on the second Thursday of each month at 7pm in the school library with a Zoom option. The agenda usually includes things like principal and teacher reports, current PTA business and the opportunity for new business (concerns/questions) to be addressed. The meetings are both open, informative and fun! If you have any questions about joining Konstella, Instagram or the monthly PTA meetings please reach out via email.

     The PTA works with the principal, teachers and families to run and/or fund student programs. This year the Highlands Executive PTA Board has put together another year full of opportunities to attend several FREE family-friendly events for the Hawk community’s enjoyment.  There are also many opportunities to join in fundraising efforts throughout the school year.  We also need numerous adult volunteers to help with committees and run events/activities.  We hope you will consider donating what time and money you can to help support all Highlands students.

     We are proud that Highlands has a rich history, with many generations of families attending Highland’s Elementary School over the years. Let’s stay connected and continue the tradition of providing the best learning environment for the kids and their future success. Your participation and support will make it happen!

Respectfully,

Kathleen Blaine
